The StockSelector Value is based on the idea that the market will typically price a stock at a consistent multiple to future earnings expectations if fundamentals remain basically the same.
In the past three years, the market has typically priced Regal Entertainment, Inc. at 17.1 times future earnings estimates. Therfore, 12 to 24 months from now, the stock should trade at
17.1 times $2.16. Furthermore, using this theory, Regal Entertainment, Inc. should trade between $25.38 and $48.53 next year.

The Industry Value is based on the same basic principal as the StockSelector Value except instead of using the company's own historic multiple, it uses the current PE ratio based on future earnings estimates for the entire Paper & Paper Products industry. Then mulitplies this value by Regal Entertainment, Inc.'s earnings estimate for the subsequent year. If the fundamentals for the company are consistent with the fundamentals for the industry, and these fundamentals (and estimates) remain the same, the Regal Entertainment, Inc. could trade around its Industry Value in the next 12 to 24 months.

A common valuation method is the PEG Ratio - the PE Ratio divided by the earnings growth rate. A stock is typically considered to be reasonably priced when its PEG Ratio = 1 or, in other words, the PE equals its growth rate. The PEG Value is the price where the PEG Ratio equals one, using future earnings estimates.
Therefore, if the future earnings estimate of $2.16 holds true, and the growth rate stays at the current projection of 9.7%, then within the next 12 to 24 months, Regal Entertainment, Inc. should trade around its PEG Value.
